Is AD 2016-19-17 a recurring Airworthiness Directive?

Yes — AD 2016-19-17 requires a repetitive inspection every 600 hours. Next-due depends on the aircraft's time in service.

Which aircraft does AD 2016-19-17 apply to?

AD 2016-19-17 applies to Bombardier — models CL-600-2C10, CL-600-2D15, CL-600-2D24, CL-600. Serial/part conditions may narrow it to specific aircraft.

Airworthiness Directives; Bombardier, Inc. Airplanes

What this AD requires

We are superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2010-23-19 for certain Bombardier, Inc. Model CL-600-2C10 (Regional Jet Series 700, 701, and 702) airplanes, Model CL-600-2D15 (Regional Jet Series 705) airplanes, and Model CL-600-2D24 (Regional Jet Series 900) airplanes. AD 2010-23-19 required repetitive inspections for damage of the main landing gear (MLG) inboard doors and fairing, and corrective actions if necessary. This new AD requires repetitive inspections for damage of the MLG inboard doors, MLG fairing, and adjacent structures of the MLG inboard doors, and corrective actions if necessary; replacement of the MLG fairing seal; and a terminating action involving increasing the clearances between the MLG fairing and MLG door. This new AD also adds one airplane and removes others from the applicability. This AD was prompted by reports of the MLG failing to fully extend. We are issuing this AD to prevent loss of controllability of the airplane during landing.

Repetitive inspection. Re-inspect every 600 hours. The next-due date/hours depend on this aircraft’s time in service — a records report computes it from the logbooks.

CL-600-2C10 = Regional Jet Series 700/701/702, S/Ns 10002 through 10333; CL-600-2D15 (Regional Jet Series 705) and CL-600-2D24 (Regional Jet Series 900), S/Ns 15001 through 15284.

Whether AD 2016-19-17 actually applies to your aircraft (by serial and installed parts) and whether it’s already complied with comes from that aircraft’s records.

How AD compliance is recorded

A valid compliance record (14 CFR 43.9) states:

Method of compliance — The specific action taken (inspected, replaced, modified) and to what revision.

Date — When the work was done.

Aircraft time — Total time in service / tach at compliance — how recurring next-due is computed.

Signature & certificate — The A&P/IA who returned it to service, with certificate number.

Tailplate reads a tail number’s logbooks and matches every applicable AD — including this one — to its compliance evidence, with recurring next-due dates computed.

Applicability is derived from the FAA directive corpus and is advisory, not a legal airworthiness determination. Compliance is established only from an aircraft’s actual records.
